Magazines. It was marketing injustice. The .41 Remington was the most senseless round ever. No reason for it. Herter had his .40 Magnum out in ‘61 I think. Made by Norma of all people. The six gun was sound and got Bill Ruger’s attention, enough he filed suit against sharing the name single-six. The .44 Mag was in general population by that time. S&W, Ruger, Herters, Jager, Hawes, all had a .44. Why in the world would we need a .41 when the .44 was actually a .43? S&W and Remington hated any little guy muscling in on the action. Especially a blow hard like George Herter. Besides Keith was going off the hinge hawking his own ideas of a police wheel gun. He too could not stomach Herter’s niche success. Such were the days of “He-men”.
The .41 made as much sense as if someone came out with a REAL .442” 44 Mag. today.
